A rare stereoisomer of inositol, scyllo-inositol, is a therapeutic agent that has shown potential efficacy in preventing Alzheimer's disease. Mycobacterium tuberculosis ino1 encoding myo-inositol-1-phosphate (MI1P) synthase (MI1PS) was introduced into Bacillus subtilis to convert glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) into MI1P. We found that

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging phase 2 study explored safety, efficacy, and biomarker effects of ELND005 (an oral amyloid anti-aggregation agent) in mild to moderate Alzheimer disease (AD). A total of 353 patients were randomized to ELND005 (250, 1,000, or

Many compounds have been tested as inhibitors or modulators of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) assembly in hope that they would lead to effective, disease-modifying therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD). These compounds typically were either designed to break apart β-sheets or selected

Most eukaryotes respire oxygen, using it to generate biomass and energy. However, a few organisms have lost the capacity to respire. Understanding how they manage biomass and energy production may illuminate the critical points at which respiration feeds into central

Beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides are thought to play a major role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Compounds that disrupt the kinetic pathways of Abeta aggregation may be useful in elucidating the role of oligomeric, protofibrillar and fibrillar Abeta in the
